It’s time for Fauci to sue this administration for defamation. How do they keep getting away with saying that he lied and he did so to be .. cruel? .. sociopathic? They don’t have any specifics, but RFK Jr was just on TV calling a loyal civil servant a liar.
How exactly is Trump going to pay for EU fines leveraged on Google and Apple? With our money?
Maybe Donald Trump isn’t a fascist. I don’t know. But he’s incredibly dumb and in a powerful position, and those with whom he admits sharing trust are fascists.
Does everyone agree that Sonarqube is extremely subjective and mostly useless? Or is it just me? #drupal
Can we please get this moron out of the White House? www.joemygod.com/2026/07/trum...
Trump: Canada Has Failed To Maintain Their Forests Therefore I'm Raising Their Tariffs Over Wildfire Smoke - Joe.My.God.

Seriously. This fucker thinks his birthday bullshit is more important than the country’s 250th anniversary.

I discovered a very strange “feature” of the Ghostery Safari extension. Apparently it sends a dozen or more requests to my local ddev site randomly throughout the day. The requests are all from my browser’s history. I don’t know if it is sending requests to other domains in my history. Odd behavior.
If Trump was a normal trashy president, he would have had the octagon built in a state like Pennsylvania. Instead, because he is such a dumb fuck and a narcissist, he chooses to make a spectacle of the people’s house.
People buying SpaceX stock are essentially transferring their wealth into Elon’s pocket.
Yes please. More affordable housing near all mass transit stops in all cities. www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...
Philadelphia built a mass transit system. Now let people live next to it. | Opinion
Council should pass legislation extending a zoning change from the Market-Frankford El to other SEPTA rail lines and our busiest bus corridors.

Are oil tankers, and other ships, being forced to remain in the Persian Gulf? Can the people working on this ships get off or do they get food and water delivered to them?
Can’t California sue the Trump admin for spreading false doubt in the integrity of their elections?
Every journalist, every day, should be asking Trump what evidence has to found that elections in this country are fraudulent. He ran out of an interview because one reporter challenged his lies.
Life and interactions with others is very difficult sometimes. 🥺
This is Bodie. His presence indicates the beginning of Pride Month. May his whimsy and steadfastness bring joy and confidence to all. 14/10 the parade starts right behind him 🌈🐾 (IG: hellobodie)
Oh that figures. Paramount+ is streaming this ridiculous UFC cage fight on the White House lawn. Can I somehow cancel my subscription again?
Also, I’m assuming this could be rephrased to say this will disenfranchise people who live in New Orleans. City folk tend to vote blue, regardless of their race. We are being forced to let the suburban and rural morons make decisions for the rest of us.
ACLU@aclu.org · 2mo agoBREAKING: The Louisiana legislature passed a new congressional map eliminating one of the state's majority-Black districts. This is a blatant effort to consolidate political power in the hands of the state's white majority and deny Black people an equal opportunity to participate in our democracy.
I might be taking organization and cable management a little too far in our new (rented) Philly row house.
Too many people still confuse Software Engineering with writing code. Code is the artifact. Software Engineering is understanding the problem, making tradeoffs, designing the system, reducing complexity, and deciding what shouldn't be built. No amount of 'vibe coding' can help you with this.
Stephen Colbert is a national treasure: The day after his show was canned after 11 years by CBS to appease a tyrant, he shows up on the Monroe, MI public access channel where he did his first Late Show broadcast in 2015.

Okay Drupal security team. You’ve got everyone on edge waiting for this highly critical security patch. I would have assumed the patches are already completed? Why am I clicking refresh on the page now that it’s past 17:00 ITC?
I canceled our Paramount+ subscription. I’ve had it since it was CBS All Access. Reasons include: cancellation of Stephen Colbert; abysmal Starfleet Academy show; dismantling CBS News; plans to purchase HBO; and the general sliminess of the Ellison family.
Daredevil was great. I hope Marvel/Disney continue the show.
